Costumes inspired by books we love

World Book day is next week (5th March) and we have picked our favourite books to take to school this year...with it's matching and inspired by outfits.
Here are our three choices for this year:

1. Up and down- Oliver Jeffers’ books are our absolute favourites — both the stories and the illustrations. After ‘Lost and Found’ comes ‘up and down’ where the boy and the penguin still enjoy spending all their time together… That is, until the penguin starts to dream of flying, ignoring the boys advice that it is impossible. Running away, the penguin visits place after place, searching for a chance to get his feet off the ground. But will flying be everything he had hoped? And is the boy missing him, as much as he is missing the boy?

This is a heart-warming story about friendship, love and reaching for your dreams. 




2. Room on the broom- The witch and her cat fly happily over forests, rivers and mountains on their broomstick until a stormy wind blows away the witch’s hat, bow and wand. They are retrieved by a dog, a bird and a frog, and each animal asks for a ride on the broom. They climb on, one after the next, until the broom is so heavy that it snaps in two! What will happen next as they tumble into a bog and meet a greedy dragon?

3. Flora and the flamingo-  In this innovative wordless picture book with interactive flaps, Flora and her graceful flamingo friend explore the trials and joys of friendship through an elaborate synchronized dance. With a twist, a turn, and even a flop, these unlikely friends learn at last how to dance together in perfect harmony. Full of humor and heart, this stunning performance (and splashy ending!) will have readers clapping for more!



Have fun and keep reading.
